Seven inspiring young people from across the country are sharing their stories of how youth work has transformed their lives as part of our national campaign to raise awareness of the impact of youth work on young people’s lives.
The film brings to life the unique role of youth workers in providing holistic support for young people which considers all the challenges they are facing, be that at school, home, or in the community. It shows how youth work supports better mental wellbeing, builds confidence and can help engage young people with school or further education, as well as open up opportunities to develop their leadership skills within their youth club.
In addition to the main film, you can also watch more detailed individual case studies from each project here: / @nationalyouthagency
